Chapter 90: The Extreme of Arrogance
At this moment, not only the generals thought so in their hearts, but even the Manchu ministers in the palace were also watching how Li Yang would close this scene.
Although everyone has long been accustomed to Li Yang's arrogant personality, this matter is not like those things in the past, which can be solved with a mouth and a flexible mind.
Tens of thousands of anti-thieves and rebels, and now even the county town has attacked several, if you don't rely on the army to quell the chaos, do you really use a mouth to deal with the tens of thousands of anti-thieves? One person, one mouth, can take back several county seats?
and let the businessmen revive the disaster, which is even more outrageous.
A few years ago, when the emperor forced a total of 120,000 wealthy families from the six countries to move to Xianyang, the national capital, he asked these rich businessmen to donate money to build the Qin Tomb, but those rich businessmen were like iron roosters one by one, taking Ba Shi, the richest man in Qin, as an example, he only donated 10,000 tons of mercury.
10,000 tons of mercury sounds like a lot, but for Ba Shi, who was originally engaged in Dansha mining, the Ba family is rich and rivals the country, and 10,000 tons of mercury is just a drop in the bucket of their Ba family.
Nowadays, there is a famine in the world, and those rich merchants know the importance of food, at this time, don't let them voluntarily donate food, even if they put a knife on the necks of those rich businessmen, coercion and temptation, it is estimated that it will be difficult to squeeze out much from their mouths.
At this moment, everyone looked at Li Yang with strange eyes, waiting for him to apologize for his rash remarks.
Even Li Si and He Zhang were worried that Li Yang would not be able to end the battle, so Li Si hurriedly helped to relieve the siege and said: "The generals are laughing, without the generals coming out, how can this chaos be calmed." The prime minister of China is just a civil minister, in charge of the law, and without a single soldier or general, how can he quell the chaos. β
He Zhang also smiled and said: "What Li Xiang said is extremely true, the prime minister is just giving advice to my Great Qin, and the matter of quelling the chaos naturally requires the generals." β
However, the generals sneered and shook their heads one after another, disapproving.
Zhang Han said: "Li Xiang's words are wrong, but the prime minister of China is conclusive, saying that relying on us to send troops to quell the chaos is useless." Moreover, the prime minister of China is not without soldiers and generals, Li You and Han Xin are not the two generals under the prime minister? β
Li Si said: "Li Younaizhong protects the army, and is in charge of the Yulin Forbidden Army, how can it be used to quell the chaos." Han Xin, who is only a lieutenant of the Dharma Protector, has 500 law enforcement feather forests in his hands, is it possible that General Cheng Zhang thinks that 500 feather forest sergeants can quell the chaos? β
Zhang Han smiled: "Li Xiang's words are bad again. But I heard that the prime minister recommended to His Majesty, saying that Han Xin was a military wizard, familiar with military books, and one person was against ten thousand people. Although there are only 500 law enforcement Yulin sergeants in Zhongcheng Mansion, the rank of the protector captain in charge of this post is the commander of the Tongbian County, and he is already a middle-level general of my Great Qin. With such a good general who is against 10,000 people, how can the prime minister of China not be able to calm the chaos? β
A group of generals said yes one after another.
Their purpose is very clear, they don't sell Li Si's face, they just want to kill Li Yang's prestige, let him understand that arrogance also has to be divided, don't talk about everything and be self-righteous.
Government affairs, if you want to be frivolous, that's it. Calm the chaos, you can, you can do it yourself, or you will brag less.
Seeing that Li Yang was deflated, Feng Quji and the others naturally watched the excitement with schadenfreude.
However, Ying Zheng didn't want to see Li Yang unable to end the scene, although his words were a little frivolous, but after all, he was a prime minister, and he still had to help him save face, so he said directly: "Zhang Han, listen to you, I will give you five hundred soldiers, and you can also quell the chaos?" β
"This ...... The minister doesn't have that ability. Zhang Han was stunned, naturally knowing the emperor's intentions, and couldn't help but smile.
Ying Zheng waved his hand: "Okay, don't argue." In fact, what Li Yang said is also reasonable, but it is difficult to implement the disaster of the businessman, and I will see the matter of quelling the chaos, and it will be up to you to ...... it."
Before he finished speaking, Li Yang interrupted: "Your Majesty, the minister is willing to take full responsibility for quelling the chaos!" β
Ga!
It's the sound of jaws dropping......
Everyone present was shocked by these words at this moment, and their mouths opened wide and looked at Li Yang stupidly.
I am willing to take full responsibility for quelling the turmoil......
Are you sure Li Yang said this?
Everyone couldn't believe their ears, for fear that they had heard it wrong.
If it wasn't that he heard it wrong, then it must have been Li Yang's madness, otherwise how could he have said such outrageous and ridiculous things!
Of course, Ying Zheng was also stunned by this!
Turning his head to look at Li Yang, he asked, "What did you just say?" β
Li Yang said earnestly word by word: "The minister just said that the minister is willing to take charge of this rebellion!" β
This time, everyone heard it clearly, and there was an uproar.
Li Yang is either crazy, or he thinks he wants to go to heaven, otherwise how could he say such a thing?
At this time, even Zhang Han and other generals were stunned, and they didn't expect Li Yang to really dare to agree to quell the chaos by himself.
And Li You and He Zhang were taken aback, if Li Yang said this because he was deflated today, and he was fighting for face for a while, he was really too impulsive, he didn't have soldiers in his hands, so how could he calm the chaos?
Ying Zheng was also worried that Li Yang was vindictive, so he couldn't help frowning and reprimanded: "Li Yang, a major military event, how can it be child's play?" β
Li Yang solemnly said, "Your Majesty, the military affairs, how dare the ministers play child's play!" Moreover, Your Majesty should understand the minister, and when it comes to state affairs, the minister has never made a joke, and this time it is definitely not a joke, and I hope that Your Majesty will approve it. β
Seeing Li Yang's serious expression, Yingzheng was stunned at this moment.
stared at Li Yang deadly, looked at it again and again, and finally frowned and said, "Are you ...... Do you want to command Zhang Han's generals and take command of the expedition? β
As soon as these words came out, everyone reacted immediately.
Suddenly, everyone was dumbfounded.
But Zhang Han and the others were immediately annoyed, and their faces sank in an instant.
Because if this is the case, it means that it is these generals who are doing the work, and the credit will be attributed to his Li Yang's head, do you say that these generals can not be angry?
However, at this moment, Li Yang shook his head and said, "Back to Your Majesty, since General Zhang also said before that they will not mix in quelling the chaos, then the minister naturally does not dare to bother the generals, and the minister can calm down this chaos by himself!" β
Quiescence......
The atmosphere of the entire Qilin Hall was surprisingly quiet at this time, and everyone looked at Li Yang in surprise as if they were looking at fools.
Arrogant!
There is simply no more arrogant person in this world!
If he doesn't rely on the army, does he really have to rely on a mouth to retreat from the tens of thousands of rebels?
Li You and them grunted, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and were already speechless in shock.
Ying Zheng also looked at the person in front of him carefully as if he didn't know Li Yang, and then asked, "What do you want to rely on to quell the chaos?" β
Li Yang said: "General Zhang Han told the minister before, the minister has one person who is a good general against ten thousand people, Han Xin is also, and there are also 100,000 rich businessmen living in Xianyang City. A good general can quell the rebellion, a rich merchant can quell the famine, the minister holds a knife in his left hand, and he helps grain with his right hand, and he comes out with both hands. β
Although Li Yang said this impassionedly, he felt very naΓ―ve and ridiculous in everyone's ears.
Han Xin, everyone has heard of it for a long time, but it is just a no-name person who has been coldly eyed, and he has never even used soldiers, so how can he understand the way of using soldiers, even if he has read a few military books, it can only be regarded as talking about soldiers on paper.
What's more, Han Xin is only the protector of Zhongcheng Mansion, and the soldiers in his hands are only 500 Yulin sergeants, and 500 people go to quell the chaos and fight against the 30,000 rebellious army?
Are you sure this isn't a joke on everyone?
Also, although there are 120,000 wealthy merchants in Xianyang City, who were forced to move into Xianyang City from the Six Kingdoms, will they really listen to your Li Yang's words and donate all their family assets to relieve the disaster? This is too whimsical, isn't it?
To be honest, some people were already sneering in their hearts at this time.
Ying Zheng couldn't believe it either, and asked, "...... you Can it really quell the chaos? β
Li Yang nodded: "If Your Majesty is a believer, the minister will definitely give Your Majesty a surprise!" β
Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows, for some reason, what he saw in Li Yang's eyes was all confidence. Moreover, as soon as he heard the word "surprise", he remembered the last time he faced the conspiracy of Zhao Gao and others, although he didn't know what Li Yang did, but the "surprise" in his mouth was indeed a big surprise, and the surprise made everyone unexpected.
After pondering for a while, Ying Zheng finally slapped the desk and made a crazy decision, saying: "Okay, I believe you, you will be fully responsible for the suppression of the chaos this time!" β
"No!"
Li Yang bowed his hand and immediately bowed down to receive the order!
